Take a regular sheet of copy paper Put no marks on it at all. Fire 5 shots as close to the middle as you can. Label it after you shoot with screen name etc and send me your target.

I will measure the exact middle, (folding both lengthwise and across its width most likely). Your score will be the combined total of inches your shots are from the center. Lowest score wins. As always the following rules apply:

My poll isn't complete for the peep sight question so no on this match, though if you want to shoot and send me your target using a peep please do, I'll give honorable mention (and if enough do Ill post a second set of scores) I just cant add you to the primary match scorecard.

Your target for this shoot is a Turkey silhouette, with 3 tiny bullseye targets in the right upper and both lower corners respectively.

The reason for this is simple; it was a member suggested target, and this is the only way I’ve found to deliver it to the masses for free. I've honestly been hesitant to use it because it required me asking you to give a...

Again, this is a creation of Adui's and I am just posting it for him.

------------------------------------
The target is a Ram silhouette target with a 2” circle. The center 1” is also marked.

Adui is the guy to ask if you have questions. I am posting this for him because this area of the forum will only allow moderators to create posts so, if you have questions or comments, please address them to him.

Greetings all. As Jethro has been absent doing real life chores I thought I'd try my hand at a contest! To be fair and honest, I am using one of his tried and true contests for my first one. This contest will run through the month of February. I will post scores in early March once I have received all submissions.

Take 5 Shots at the center of a standard 8.5" x 11" sheet of typing/printer paper with an X drawn thru the center at 25 yards. Sighting spots are allowed.
I need 5 shots on paper for this one.

Your member screen name must be written on your targets.
Also write either "Lefty" or "Righty" on your target so I know which team you're on.

This one is a 2x4 cuttin' contest, better known as a "post shoot". A Postal Post Shoot!

There were several requests for a re-do and it has been quite a while...

The target is a regular old construction lumber "2x4" (which isn't really 2"x4"), 4 feet long.
Use an aiming point if you like.

It's not a requirement, but try to get a member who doesn't usually enter the contests to be your partner. Maybe a little fun and friendly competition will get them to enter more contests in the future.
